LANHAM, Theresa Cash Born Amy Theresa Wilson 10/10/1930 - 3/31/16. Theresa grew up in Garland, TX, the 7th child of Joseph O. and Elizabeth (Howrey) Wilson. She married Herbert Ray Cash, and as a young woman she epitomized indomitable grit as she worked and raised their daughter after an accident left him paralyzed. She was a wonderful lady who could always be relied on to get the job done, no matter how tough. Following Ray's death, she fell in love with charming Harry Neal Lanham, and they happily camped, had fish fries, and danced the two-step until his death in 2014. In retirement, she volunteered at the Visiting Nurses Association, looking after her little people. In death, she donated her body to science. She will be remembered as an unstoppable little bundle of spunk, and we will miss her dearly. She is survived by sisters Elizabeth Holmes and Rosemary Howell, daughter Marcia Cash, grandchildren Tess Barton, Jacob Ray Staber, Finn Allen Staber, and Connan Rain Staber, and great-grandchildren Kelsey, Coleman and Johnny Ray Staber. Memorial services will be held Saturday, April 16 at 1:00pm at Unity on Greenville in Dallas, TX.
